My feet have shrank exponentially from a woman's 6 to a kids 2. I'm only 27 and haven't gained or lost weight and my active life hasn't changed either. It's getting to be a problem being 5'7" tall, my balance has taken a nose dive with tiny feet. Any ideas on why this is happening? Special ordering heels is getting very expensive.

Did you lose weight? You would go down in shoe sizes that way. Other than that, probably not.
Yes, in middle school I wore a size 9. I lost some weight and now I'm a 7.5.
Many factors. Weather, weight, exercise can affect foot size. Different shoe companies use different sizes. My sneaker and dress shoe sizes are different.
If your feet are shrinking you may have Myopthea. If so, you'll continue to get smaller and smaller until you eventually disappear altogether.

yes, feet can shrink, i used to wear a size 9, but my feet shrunk to a size 8. i didn't know why for a long time, but just recently read that there can be several medical reasons for this, so, it might be a good idea to see a dr. and get checked out, (and im talking to myself on that as well.)
No... Although certain shoes vary in sizes. For I.e I used to wear a lot of globes and Es when I was younger and they tend to run smaller IMO. depends on the brand.
It could be muscular atrophy in your feet. That usually happens when you either over-train those muscles or don't eat enough.
Yes. Feet shrink and expand. It can be fat or accumulation of fluids.
Your feet must be delicious now. Take a pic if you can. Don't worry shoe sizes vary from brand to brand one brand I'm 12 another I'm 13.
My feet have definitely shrunk - and I haven't lost weight. I have to buy a size smaller shoe and socks. My feet started shrinking almost two years ago when I turned 50. Very strange!
If you've lost weight you may go down about a half size maybe a whole size depending on the brand and type of shoe.
Not permanently.
this happened to me too! I think it's possible!
It's posssible.
